07:18:59 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
07:18:59 Custom image file path/names are in use
07:18:59   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
07:18:59 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:19:00 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
07:19:00 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:19:00 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:19:00 Dome is MaxDome
07:19:00 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:19:00 Imager is ASCOM
07:19:00 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:19:00 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240215@071735 UTC
07:19:00 Imager readout modes:
07:19:00   0 is Fast
07:19:00   1 is Normal
07:19:00 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:19:00 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:19:00 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
07:19:00 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:19:00 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:19:00 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:19:00 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:19:00 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:19:00 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
07:19:00 ==== Starting target HQ_Mon ====
07:19:00 ACPS Observation HQ_Mon(1 of 1)
07:19:00   (belongs to Project AAVSO_ZCAM_HQA_AUTO_ver3443, Plan HQ_Mon)
07:19:00   (turning on sidereal tracking)
07:19:00 Pointing updates are enabled
07:19:00 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
07:19:00   Start slew to HQ_Mon...
07:19:02   (wait for slew to complete)

07:19:31   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
07:19:31   Focus change of -290 steps required
07:19:35   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
07:19:35   (using Fast readout mode)
07:19:35   (starting exposure)
07:20:00   (exposure complete)
07:20:02   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
07:20:04   Image finished
07:20:04   Plate-solve pointing image.
07:20:04   1196 image stars found
07:20:04   415 catalog stars found
07:20:06   Solved! 114 stars matched.
07:20:06   Average residual is 0.36 arcsec.

07:20:06   [sync] pointing model updated
07:20:06   Re-slew to target.
07:20:06   Start slew to HQ_Mon...
07:20:09   (wait for slew to complete)
07:20:19   (slew complete)
07:20:19   Target is now centered.
07:20:19   (high cadence option, no web previews)
07:20:19   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
07:20:19   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
07:20:19   Focus change of 290 steps required
07:20:23   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
07:20:36   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=962.101 Y=931.2972
07:20:37   (guide star SNR=13.2 X=962 Y=931)
07:20:37   (first exposure estimate 1.14 sec)

07:20:42   (final exposure for guiding 1.08 sec)
07:20:46   (guide star SNR=3.0 X=958 Y=927)
07:20:47 **Guider unexpectedly stopped while waiting for measurement
07:20:48   (take guider image at initial interval 1.08 sec)
07:20:53   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1052 Y=359
07:20:53 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
07:20:54 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
07:21:06   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=722.6609 Y=912.9968
07:21:07 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
07:21:07 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
07:21:07 **Autoguiding failed.
